Confidentiality Agreement: Non-Solicitation Clause

by Practical Law Commercial Transactions

This Standard Clause details the provisions of a non-solicitation agreement between parties, focusing on restrictions during and after the agreement's term. It outlines the conditions under which a party may not solicit or hire employees of the other party, including specific exceptions such as general media solicitations not aimed at circumventing the clause. The document also covers prohibitions on inducing clients, customers, or suppliers to alter or terminate their business relationships with the other party. The clause includes terms about the reasonableness of the restrictions' duration, scope, and geographical area, and provides for judicial modification to ensure enforceability.
